They are heat treat and if you welded it.... What the heck kind of question was that anyway? A newbie like me is supposed to ask that... krcruiser 10-09-2002, 06:58 AM I think high5 and crew are wrong ;). You should weld it up,take it out and hammer it. Please take detailed notes as I intend to start a poll on how many feet you get before welded shaft goes boom... sceep 10-09-2002, 07:04 AM we welded a shaft a back last winter. Buddy of mine showd up at the house with a busted d-44 front shaft under his scout, broke right @ the axle seal surface. welded it back together, spun the weld down on the lathe so the seal would seal again and threw it back in. That shaft lasted another 4 months of HARD wheeling, lasted longer than any of the previous d-44 shafts that he's had in there,(well... except for the new warns). i say weld it.. what do you have to loose?:flipoff2: Travis Waldher 10-09-2002, 07:12 AM I know another guy that snapped a D44 rear shaft, he pulled it apart, ground it down to a point, lined up both pieces and welded away. That thing is still holding 1 year later. | |
